Holy wow! I had the best street food I've had in the US here! And their fun versions like Pani Puri shots and dabaang dosa were amazing! So clean, so fresh, so friendly.

Street food,
honestly made.
Cut and cooked the day you eat it. No food colouring, since the first hand-cart in 1975.
What people come back for
The three
we are judged on.
Pani puri poured cold at the counter. Dahi puri built to order. A dosa rolled the way Ahmedabad does it.

We travel a lot for our business and swing by many many Indian restaurants. In all of our travels this was by far the cleanest place we have encountered. The service and food was top notch as well.

The Debang Dosa was flavorful and perfectly crispy, and the Papdi Chaat had that perfect mix of sweet, tangy, and crunchy.

Food was delicious, we got multiple things including soy tikka masala, cheese dosa, pani puri, Punjabi thali, garlic naan — all of these were delicious. The staff is super nice and friendly. 10/10

If you didn't know it was vegetarian you wouldn't know it was vegetarian. The food, the presentation, the flavors were all excellent. Give them a try. You won't be disappointed.

We've had several of the dosas, sandwiches, uttapams, and pav bhaji, and everything has been consistently good. One of our favorites is the garlic noodles — they're spicy, full of flavor, and something we order almost every time.

Our story
From one cart
to 159th Street.
In 1975 the family started with a single hand-cart, one tawa and a bhaji that took four hours to build. People queued. The cart became a shop, the shop became a chain, and eventually the griddle reached the south-west side of Chicago.
What travelled with us is small and stubborn: masala ground for our own kitchens, vegetables cut the same morning, and a rule that nothing is coloured to look better than it tastes.
